A while back M. Faiman of the UIUC said something to me
that crystallized my feelings on the subject of busses:

	It's time we got some RISC busses.

I'd like to start a conversation string on this.

Topics:
	What (CISCy) features are there in existing busses that
	could be eliminated?
		VMEbus?
		Multibus?
		FUTUREbus?
	What is the set of "good ideas" that should be in new busses?
